Google's Face Unlock technology on Pixel phones operates effectively in normal lighting conditions but struggles in the dark. The company appears to be developing an enhancement called 'active illumination' that addresses this limitation. According to the report, the solution involves brightening the device's screen to provide additional light for the face recognition system to operate more reliably.
Key points
